    Loss of power in 1990 civic
    I have a 1990 Civic. One day driving home from work it lost power at a stop light. Since then when I turn the key it doesn't turn over at all. It is getting fuel to the injectors. My ECU flashes once which indicates an oxegen content problem. I have disconnected the 02 sensor and checked the catalytic converter. There is a small amount of exhaust coming out, however it does not start to build up enough compression. Should I check the coil? Or which direction should I go in now? Any info would be helpful.
